The thing is that the KH-38 has been shown once in 2009 and then almost
10 years later in 2017
and they went from this:
to this:
so to me it seems like they have been development going on for almost 10 years on it
and there is the tendency of the russians to have multiple different seekers for the same missile
for example:
- Kh-29
- R-27
so it might be the case that they have the capebility of the Kh-38MT but simply dont want to use it for some reason, like cost, not being suitable for the strike missions they are doing or simply a low suply of them

MTE-export version
Im not, ive stated I’m not 100% sure it doesnt exist, just that current evidence overwhelmingly points to it not existing. I am fully willing to admit it exists if someone provides evidence beyond 15 y/o mockups and some brochures.
Multiple is a stretch. Theres either 1 mockup pictured at 2 seperate MAKS, or 2 mockups at MAKS 2009.
The Su-75 checkmate is advertized for export despite only being a mockup. Its possible they were looking for additional funding or expertise for the other variants and it never came through.

Existed, its been removed from the modern iteration of the brochure on the Rosoboronexport website, as has the MAE (active radar), MKE(satellite only), and the cluster warhead (no identifying designator)

I already covered those pics, the 2017 one is a Kh-38MLE NOT an MTE. Source is in my original post

That is clearly labelled as a KH-38ME and that is 1000% a laser seeker not an IR seeker.

Nonsense
That’s just another photo of KH-38ME from this at a different angle.
And there is no way that isn’t just a laser seeker;
X-38МЭ

This is the Kh-38MT
There’s a different head for the laser, and there should be a grid that doesn’t exist here.
I make believe aha comment

There might be another newer laser seeker with additional features but that doesn’t change that the photo is showing a laser seeker.
this is a laser seeker.

- All 3 are MLE’s, I already covered this. Repeating the same lie doesnt make it true.
- Pictures from the war are against forum rules
- Second and third pics are both mockups

Особенностью ракет семейства Х-38МЭ является модульный принцип построения, обеспечивающий повышенную боевую эффективность за счет использования различных типов систем наведения и боевого оснащения при действиях по разным целям, а также возможность оперативно реагировать на изменение тактической обстановки в зоне боевых действий.
The ME is a platform with different guidance heads.E-export is not a laser head
Can even see on the final production version of 38ML the tiny FOV in the centre of the seeker, reminiscent of all laser seekers
